The people of the US did not want to become involved in another world war. This brought upon the time called isolationism. For most Americans it seemed the sane way to go and not lose American lives in Europe.
The US populous and government people adopted the isolationist view because they were incensed over the millions of people who died in World War 1 for no sensible reason. The reasons for World War 1 were very convoluted and "stupid". The US lost many men and some women in that useless, futile war. The Americans swore they would never fight any other nation's battles or wars for them or with them. So they isolated themselves from Europe and other places politically and socially. The US could do that easily since the Americans and Canadians are not surrounded by a bunch of other countries as they are in Europe.
It was clear when the US Congress declined to join the League of Nations after WW 1 that America was not going to be involved in world affairs, especially in Europe. This was in line with the majority of US citizens. The results of WW 1 were deaths of American soldiers and the 1920's only saw chaos in the world. There was no need to involved in alliances, secret ones, or otherwise that would cost the USA soldiers' lives. Many people remembered from their school days that President George Washington advised Americans to steer clear of European affairs.
The US doesn't want to involve in any more foreign wars that doesn't have anything to do with the US.

YES. The Neutrality Acts reflected the US popular support of isolationism.
The scares of WW1 and warren harding's "return to normalcy " was why the us decided to stay out of euro affairs and when it worked the othe 20s presidents kept the same policies
The major root cause for the sense of Isolationism portrayed by the United States in the 1930's was the Great Depression. With a World War I having just ended, the major economic catastrophe that hit the US caused our leaders to focus inward to affairs at home rather than abroad.
Growing conflicts in European and Asian countries.
Between the 1920s and 1930s the United States followed an isolationist policy. Many believed the country had been tricked into World War I by the European allies, as well as the Wilson Administration making a deal with munitions companies and banks for war profit.
